To: 10C scalpers/brokers beware. We know you're out there.

Thanks Pete

If my group sees you
-go up to the 10C window,
-pick-up tix,
-hand the pair off to somebody else in exchange for cash (more than face),
-and you walk away

then, video will be taken and we will notify venue security and the 10C staff. Good luck trying to get away with it this time around.


:ugeek: I've been a 10C member for something like 17 years, and a native New Yorker that was shut out of both MSG nights.

My and my group will be watching :shock:

Because we have no life... Let's not get all vigilante or anything.. Jeez.. It's just a concert.. They aren't dealing heroin.. Brokers/Scalpers are the scum of the earth, but let's not get carried away..

I'm sure this thread has all the scalpers in NYC rethinking things.

beware the 10c gestapo.

What are you going to do? Follow every person picking up tickets to see if they sell them? Do you think the venue really cares? Do you think a video sent to ten club will help? What will they do? Search their fan club profiles until they find the person in the video? Relax. Buy tickets tomorrow and go to the concert instead of going on a stakeout with your group.

I saw the stickman giving the peace sign on another thread... Quick, someone make one with him flipping the bird

How did you know that some of us are cops? Stakeout first, then see the concert. We're just sick of people looking the other way. Don't worry how it's going to be done, not every detail was mentioned.
Also, there would be less bitchin' about tickets if more people cared and did something about these dirtbags.

Leaving brokers/scalpers holding a big batch of unsold tickets after the event has come and gone is the only way to do away with them. Otherwise, kill off one batch, another will take their place to reap the profits to be had.

with an attitude like that, it's absolutely no surprise that you're native NY.

A.) How can you determine tickets changed hands for more than face-value without actually standing over someone's shoulder.
B.) Are you going to be writing down people's license plates? How do you plan to identify them?
C.) your plan leaves you just begging to get your butt sued (harassment, invasion of privacy, etc.)
D.) I'm pretty sure "scalping" is in fact legal in NY.
http://www.ticketnews.com/New-York-Gov- ... sion609105

The bill not only allows ticket scalping to continue without limits as to what brokers or others can charge, it also prohibits teams from revoking season tickets of fans who resell their tickets through channels other than the team; requires primary ticket sellers to disclose whether seats have obstructed views; and prohibits primary sellers from selling or conveying tickets through a secondary ticket seller that they own.
